13e succès en carrière
Karl Geiger, arrivé à Titisee Neustadt en tant que 2e du général de la coupe du monde, a profité des deux concours du week-end et de ses deux succès pour repasser nettement devant Ryoyu Kobayashi.
Comme samedi, le champion du monde Allemand s'impose devant le Slovène Anze Lanisek et son coéquipier Markus Einsenbichler. Les trois hommes devançant assez nettement le reste de la concurrence.
Au général de la coupe du monde, Karl Geiger possède désormais 61 points de marge sur Kobayashi qui termine au pied du podium. Le globe de cristal se jouera probablement en mars entre ces deux hommes.
Jan Hoerl, Timi Zajc, Halvor Egner Granerud, Peter Prevc, Stefan Kraft et Stefan Leyhe prennent les places d'honneur.
On note encore la belle 11e place du Suisse, en forme et sutrtout en progrès, Gregor Deschwanden.

Les réactions
Karl Geiger (GER):
It was a perfect weekend for me in Titisee-Neustadt. I would have never expected to win both competitions here and it was just so much fun to jump here.
Anze Lanisek (SLO):
It was a bit like copy and paste from yesterday. My first jump today was not that good, but in the second round I had a very good one. Karl was jumping very well again and he deserved the win. Hopefully I can do even better next time."
Markus Eisenbichler (GER):
"I'm very satisfied with my performance today, both of my jumps were very good. In the second round I was a bit dissapointed, because as an athlete you know if the conditions are okay or not and I realized during the flight that it's tough and really difficult.
But of course it's cool that I could still finish on the podium. I'll have to keep on working and maybe luck will be on my side one day."
